You can’t directly do this. There is only one way to get an instance of both
AudioUnit and AUAudionUnit that I’m aware of and that is to use a 3rd API,
which is AVAudioUnit.

AVAudioUnit has the following properties on it:

@property(nonatomic, readonly) AudioUnit audioUnit;
@property(nonatomic, readonly) AUAudioUnit *AUAudioUnit; (as part of
AVAudioNode, which AVAudioUnit is a subclass).

Instantiate with AVAudioUnit and then use the properties to get the appropriate
type of audio unit.

I hope this helps.
